The answer is 7/8 so you would round it to 1.
Answer: x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>first, we remove the parentheses. </em>
10 - 54 - 24x = 10x - 120 + 8
<em>then, we just calculate that out.</em>
-44 - 24x = 10x - 112
<em>next, we move the terms.</em>
-24x - 10x = -112 + 44
<em>then, we collect the like terms and calculate it.</em>
-34x = -68
<em>finally, we divide both sides.</em>
x = 2
I believe it’ll be 4/10 = 12/20
Answer:
Ratio = 3 : 2 and value of m = 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the end points ( -3,-1 ) and ( -8,9 ) of a line and a point P = ( -6,m ) divides this line in a particular ratio.
Let us assume that it cuts the line in k : 1 ratio.
Then, the co-ordinates of P =
.
But,
= -6
i.e. -8k-3 = -6k-6
i.e. -2k = -3
i.e. 
So, the ratio is k : 1 i.e
i.e. 3 : 2.
Hence, the ratio in which P divides the line is 3 : 2.
Also,
= m where 
i.e. m = 
i.e. m = 
i.e. m = 
i.e. m = 5.
Hence, the value of m is 5.
